diy: summer scrub

Above is a fresh batch of scrub that I mixed together in less than a few minutes today! It is too easy not to share and it only takes four ingredients. I wanted an energizing scrub that I could use in the morning, rather than thelavender scrub that I like to use in the evening. The scent of orange is always energizing and mixed with the coconut oil it makes for a delicious scent and leaves the skin with a healthy glow. This mixture is also nice after multiple days in the sun when the skin needs a little exfoliation. Add ingredients in order on label below with the largest portion being sea salt, then top it off with coconut oil. Last, add about 30 orange drops and stir with a butter knife.

Sorry Rachel, I didn't measure. It's best to add until you get the texture you like. You could try 1/2 cup salt, 1/3 cup sugar, 1/4 cup coconut oil and about 30 drops of orange. Depending on if you like sugar scrubs or salt scrubs more, I would add more of that ingredient.

I saw in one of ur old post 2 pairs of riding boots that u wored...I think it was ur engagement pictures...can u let me know what brand they are....I love them and in the market to get some new riding boots for the winterthanks Feliciafelicialetran@yahoo.com

Just made this scrub and LOVE it!!! I bought my coconut oil from Target in the cooking oil section and my orange essential oil from HEB in the organic section.Hope that helps for those that don't have access to a Whole Foods grocery store!

Why the salt? This is the first scrub I have seen with salt in it and I know salt is drying so I am concerned about using this on my dry hands (although I suspect it would make a nice substitution for hand soap since salt is cleansing...)THanks!

I just made some of this with organic extra virgin coconut oil, sea salt, raw sugar, and lemongrass oil. So refreshing. The measurements stated earlier were good for one half pint jar. And i added about 4 tablespoons more coconut oil. Rinse and towel after use vigorously. My hands are so soft now.
